response from him.
    His inference that she didn’t understand the concept because she couldn’t identify with the product was asinine. This was what she did for a living. She darn well knew what she was talking about. She grabbed her dishes and went back inside. Fresh irritation sparked anew just recalling their disagreement. Sienna cleaned up the kitchen. The white FedEx package sitting on the counter caught her eye. She stalked over to the counter to retrieve it. “I don’t understand men’s underwear, huh Mr. Deveraux?”
    Sienna pulled a pair of Best Kept Secrets briefs out of the envelope and walked into her living room. Vaughn’s words and his condescending tone had sparked her competitive side. “It’s game time Mr. Know-It-All,” she said, aloud. Sienna slid her lounging pants down her legs and stepped out of them when they hit the floor. Next item to be discarded was her panties. She had to laugh at the picture she would paint if anyone happened to be peeking through her window. Slowly, Sienna eased the underwear up her thighs and over her hips. Once they were in place she stood there motionless. “Hmm,” she turned around several times. She walked into her foyer and stopped in front of the large mirror. “Well, aside from the opening in the crotch they look good. Now let’s try moving in them.”
    Sienna turned up the radio and danced around to some “old school” tunes. She felt a bit silly when she broke into the Running Man. “So far so good. Let’s see how you handle exercise.” Sienna turned and took off up the steps. She took them as fast as she could. Her breath came rapidly out of her mouth as she climbed the stairs and then ran down them.
    Sienna ran up and down the steps several times. She was on the way down when the phone rang.
    â€œHello?” she said, a little breathless.
    â€œDo I even want to know what you’re doing?”
    â€œHey, Vivi. I’m conducting an experiment.”
    â€œWith whom?” she snickered.
    â€œNot whom, what. Men’s underwear.”
    â€œI told you you’ve been working too hard.”
    â€œWould you be serious? Sherry gave me samples of the Best Kept Secrets line. I have to tell you Viv, the underwear is amazing. I’ve been doing everything in them and I can’t even tell I have them on, aside from the air occasionally sneaking thru the manly opening.”
    â€œUh-huh. So why are you doing this again?”
    â€œTo prove a point. He thinks I don’t know what I’m talking about just because I have never worn men’s underwear. Well now I have, and his pitch is still corny.”
    â€œWho?”
    â€œVaughn Deveraux.”
    â€œHe’s the creative director at Chase & Burroughs, right?”
    â€œYes, he’s the CD all right. Not so sure about the creative part though. More like Certified D—”
    â€œSienna!”
    â€œI was going to say dufus.”
    â€œWasn’t he the one you hit it off with at the party?”
    â€œIt was just a friendly conversation, but yes, until he acted like a complete jerk.”
    Vivian laughed. “So what are you going to do now?”
    â€œI’m going to finish my experiment and give Mr. Deveraux a report of my findings. You know, these things are so comfortable it’s no surprise that a woman would want to wear them,” Sienna paused for a moment. “Vivian, that’s it.”
    â€œWhat’s it? You’ve lost me again, Sienna. I can only follow you around so many bends,” she said, with exasperation.”
    â€œNever mind, I’ll tell you later.”
    â€œOh no you don’t. You can’t leave me hanging like this. Tell me what you’re up to and I mean right now,” Vivian threatened.
    â€œCan’t. I have to hurry if I’m going to go through with this. I have to see Mr. Creative Director to give him a piece of my mind, and
